Today, business partners work together from multiple continents, spanning multiple time zones – facing multiple challenges. This is especially true when it comes to accounts payable and invoicing. In the past, working with a legacy accounting system was perfectly acceptable and certainly quite common. Now, however, legacy accounting systems that are not scalable, interconnected, and without cloud access are no longer going to cut it for a company that wants to compete in the current economy.

It’s happened to everyone – duplicate order entries. It wouldn’t happen if only one person worked in the office and handled everything from order execution to accounting, but that isn’t how businesses are run in the real world. In the real world, of course, more than one person is needed to get the job done, and so duplicate entries can be a problem.
Duplicate entries are most likely to happen when a company is doing business the old way: with legacy systems like Excel, Word, and Outlook. Duplicate orders are difficult to avoid when using this older technology because files, orders, invoices, etc. are often spread out amongst various staff members in various offices on various computers – making it very difficult to keep things organized.
